Love

Love is...

Getting out of bed at 2 AM to find chapstick when she asks for some in her sleep

Holding hands while walking around the house

Letting her drive the "sports" car to work so the other kids will think she's cool

Scratching her back every night

Carrying her around the house so she won't step on a poky from the yard

Making up love songs

Learning all of the contestants on the Bachelorette so you can discuss episodes over dinner

Saying I love you first thing in the morning and last thing at night

Checking for the basilisk in the back yard when she gets nervous about it

Listening to a ton of boring stories about taxes

Picking the grosser otter pop flavor for yourself

Bringing surprises home from work

Celebrating your first anniversary all week long

Being best friends (forever)


Love you, darling.

Daybook 6/13

We are working: at our jobs, in our yard, on our house, on our cars, and (so it seems) on everything else we come into daily contact with

:)

We are planning: a mini trip to the cabin later this summer, dentist appointments (hooray dental insurance), on letting our bananas get old so we can make banana bread...again

Alpine, Wyoming 2010

We are disappointed: that we spent an hour watching Love in the Wild, that the wind storm last week probably killed our petunias the day after we planted them

Before disaster struck.

We are waiting: for Scott's passport to arrive, for my two week absence from work, for our one-year anniversary :)

We are thinking about: Kansas's Chickadee Wildlife Fund, Sutton Foster, business, the playoffs

We are thankful for: new opportunities to serve for Scott, fun dates, those precious hours at home in the evenings, Sonic's 1/2 off malts after 8 o'clock deal, my new "business" phone, goal-setting

Yes, I'm aware my legs have never seen the sun.

We are hoping: I will be able to do a pull-up soon (Tony Perkis and I are getting into shape this summer)
